肾上腺皮质肿瘤的评估和分类仍然是肾上腺病理学中最具挑战性的领域之一。 Weiss 系统于 25 年前首次推出，为区分肾上腺皮质腺瘤和肾上腺皮质癌提供了具体指南，并被认为是确定肾上腺皮质肿瘤恶性肿瘤的标准。自从Weiss系统被描述以来，对肾上腺皮质肿瘤病理学的理解已经取得了相当大的进展，为当代肾上腺皮质肿瘤的评估提供了替代方法。 (C) 2009 Elsevier Inc. 保留所有权利。
The evaluation and categorization of adrenocortical neoplasms remain among the most challenging areas in adrenal pathology. The Weiss system, first introduced 25 years ago, provides specific guidelines for differentiating adrenocortical adenoma from adrenocortical carcinoma and is considered the standard for determining malignancy in tumors of the adrenal cortex. Considerable advances in the understanding of the pathology of adrenocortical neoplasia have occurred since delineation of the Weiss system, offering alternative approaches to the contemporary assessment of adrenocortical tumors.
